Because this is what Americans that pay attention do .... They call you out on it and say ... "You Lie"

As Americans, we have the responsibility to speak up when something doesn't wash. To sit there and not say anything about something that is very clearly wrong, could be considered to be, very Un-American.

I said the same thing. I had no issue with him calling him a liar; I had an issue with how he called him a liar. I guess professionalism and decorum come after being right these days.

So when your kids get sent home from school for disrupting the class you'll be proud of yourself and what you taught them. And then when they get fired after yelling out during a board meeting you can pat yourself on the back.

Joe Wilson's tally since 'You Lie' rises to $2.7 million - Ben Smith - POLITICO.com

Quote:
South Carolina Rep. Joe Wilson has raised $2.7 million in an outpouring of conservative support that followed his shouting "You lie!" at President Obama during a joint session of Congress and facing fierce attacks from Democrats as a result, a source close to his campaign told POLITICO.
Love it.

If they are good parents they will teach them to respect the country and protest against any president that has such disrespect for the conntry that he will openly lie to the people on facts easily found out.
If you reached any further with this one, you would fall over.
